We had an exceptional guide Francesca she was knowledgeable and hilarious she had a way for you to learn the history as well as the meaning the artist was trying convey I recommend this agency and your for the art lovers that don’t fully understand it the plus perk to this was we walked right in while there was a General Admission line with people standing that was as long as a line for a Disneyworld line at space mountain

you get the best of Madrid in just 5 hours. the tour is by bus, so it is not convenient to take pictures. I suggest to book this activity on your first day in Madrid - it gives you an overview of what is worth seeing and you can plan your following days accordingly.
